It's perfect, thanks a lot !

Thanks, I will try that !

@Napsius Apologies I did forget 2 lines. Make the flags init section look like this:

this setFlagAnimationPhase 0;
this setVariable ["flagTxt",(flagTexture this),true];
this forceFlagTexture "\FlagInteract\textures\flagBlank.paa";

When I do that, the flag doesn't disappear, it's just at the base of the pole). How can I solve that ?

Thanks !

@Napsius You will have to put the "flagArray pushBack "CLASSNAME";" in the mission files init.sqf file. And to make the flag start at the bottom you will have to put "this setFlagAnimationPhase 0;" in the flags init section.

Hi ! I want to use this on a roleplay server (with a custom flag from AMF). So if I understood correctly, I just have to add the "flagArray pushBack "CLASSNAME";" line in the flag's init ?

Also, I want the flag to be taken down by default. How can I do that ?

Yes, I do this step. but it still doesnt work :(

@Apophis I'm not sure, it used to work fine in MP but there was a change at some point that causes it not to always work for some people. Did you do the step listed under "Multiplayer Requirements"?

There is something to add in the file cfgRemoteExec? The mod don't work in my dedicated server, but in Eden yes
